macvtap: zerocopy: validate vectors before building skb
commit b92946e2919134ebe2a4083e4302236295ea2a73 upstream. There're several reasons that the vectors need to be validated: - Return error when caller provides vectors whose num is greater than UIO_MAXIOV. - Linearize part of skb when userspace provides vectors grater than MAX_SKB_FRAGS. - Return error when userspace provides vectors whose total length may exceed - MAX_SKB_FRAGS * PAGE_SIZE.
